In reply to Sarah. I freeze it and then use it for muffins!

This was delicious!! Will definitely be keeping it in the holiday rotation. So straightforward and I was so pleased with how it turned out – as someone with a bad track record with crusts! I liked it even better cold as leftovers. Any tips on what to use the leftover streusel for? Thank you for the recipe!

I was looking for a way to use up some fresh pears and this was perfect. Everyone loved it!

When cooling the crust do I remove the baking beans and parchment paper?
Thanks

Hi, so you think I can use canned pears?

In reply to Colleen.

Hi Colleen – Yes, 4 pears should be about 3 cups. And walnuts or a mix would work great! Let me know how it turns out for you.

In reply to Peggy. I haven't tried this particular tart with apples. Apples can take much longer to bake than pears, and may need more or less sugar depending on the variety. But if you decide to experiment let me know how it turns out!

I’m curious why ( when I left a comment this morning) and asked a couple questions about your dessert, that now tt has disappeared?

Could you replace the pears with apples?
